ClassCastException using MySQL ReplicationDriver in a JBoss app?

Can anyone help me with this? I've read through http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-j-reference-replication-connection.html and created a JBoss datasource with

<connection-url>jdbc:mysql:replication://sys1:3306,sys2:3306,sys3:3306/mydb</connection-url>
<driver-class>com.mysql.jdbc.ReplicationDriver</driver-class>

In my JBoss code, when I execute the following (on a slave node)

Context initCtx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource) initCtx.lookup( ... );
conn = ds.getConnection();
conn.setReadOnly( false );
conn.prepareStatement( ... );

The prepareStatement call produces the following stack trace:

2010-09-16 18:45:31,129 WARN  [org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.TxConnectionManager] (ajp-127.0.0.1-8009-2) Connection error occured: org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.TxConnectionManager$TxConnectionEventListener@1b576f8[state=NORMAL mc=org.jboss.resource.adapter.jdbc.local.LocalManagedConnection@11a3ce4 handles=1 lastUse=1284659131129 permit=true trackByTx=false mcp=org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.JBossManagedConnectionPool$OnePool@193a581 context=org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.InternalManagedConnectionPool@56e1fe xaResource=org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.TxConnectionManager$LocalXAResource@f058a txSync=null]

I've looked around for answers but can't find anyone with a similar problem. Am I missing the obvious???

Thanks
